Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une pile métal-air (50) comportant une ouverture d'entrée d'air et un plénum d'air (250). Ledit procédé consiste à déterminer une épaisseur du plénum d'air (250) au moyen de la loi de Fick, et à fabriquer une pile avec un plénum d'air présentant l'épaisseur déterminée. Une épaisseur appropriée du plénum d'air est nécessaire à une bonne circulation de l'air vers une cathode de la pile.
